Heart Math

about this album

15 songs of International, Instrumental, Modern Day Library Music, clocking in at 48 minutes. As usual, the music is filled with tons of Heavy Drums, Psychedelic Synths, String Arrangements, Brass, Voices and so much more, all Drenched in Delay and Rinsed in Reverb! Released August 7, 2020 Artwork by TANT of Broken Fingaz. After a short hiatus, The Gaslamp Killer has returned with turbulent, moody, and gorgeous symphonies on his third full-length album, Heart Math.

This is a work conceived and creative with every last ounce of love and pain, all of it made in turmoil and psychic unrest, with music providing the only form of solace or opportunity to find even a fleeting moment of happiness. It is as pure as catharsis gets. Heart music to survive a season in hell. It’s audible from the first notes of the first track “Forged By Fire,” recorded in one haunting take. It’s suffused with John Carpenter synths, tempestuous violins swirling in the background, and a rich smoke-filled air of psychological torment. The vaunted multi-instrumentalist Miguel Atwood-Ferguson did the arrangement in a single night and it’s one of the most startlingly beautiful works in a career filled with them. Step into the sinister and sad Arabic funhouse that is “One Take Jake,” where GLK is aided by the Grammy and Latin Grammy Award winning composer, Roberto Sch
